worried : ( Started by: jesska

heyy i wouldnt worry if the nurse isnt hun, i’v seen a few posts on here about there wounds opening a little it’ll close up soon 🙂 xx

i’m sure you’ll be fine hun, dont rush anything && try not to over do things…chin up xx

i had the exact same thing after about 10 days just one of mine opened slightly and i was the same i was worrying so much and i mean loads! but it did heal eventually after about 2 more weeks i think it was just annoying because i couldnt shower still!! but i just kept going back to my nurse who was amazing every 3 days or something to have some iodine over it and then a dressing which stops all infection! try not to worry it will heal up by itself 🙂 x

yeah it did take quite a while it was very frustrating but everyone is different you might be quicker then me! noo i was still in work didnt do anything different really just took it a bit easier and didnt drive as much, just be careful but it shouldnt open anymore. i would try and avoid lifting if possible! it has a tiny bit yeah but not loads and it doesnt bother me! thats fine ill accept but unfortunately i dont have any pictures sorry! ive never got round to doing it but i am going to try and sort it this weekend of my result and my scars, just means there will be no before pics! xx

thats fine lorna i’v accepted xx

Hey Hun my left incision was bleeding for 6 days after op had to have 4 bandage changes I did post on here as I was worried but nurse told me it was chest drain still leaking it was when they took my strapping off it was discovered to be the incision! But all ok I had to have steri strips on for an extra few days and I would say it is around a weeks worth of healing behind compared to my right incision but the main thing is that it is fine don’t worry but do try to rest that side a bit more and no lifting things!! Good luck xx
